of the Kitchen" of which she was the
life and light. About nine years ago
Miss Vokes retired from the stage, but
like all artists who had once
won the hearts of the public,
she longed to revisit the scenes
OF her triumphs and to once again re-
ceive the appreciation of the multitudes.
10 that end she organized company of
comedians in London about two years
ago and sailed for America with
repertoire of special comedies unher-
aided, and as one might suppose, for
gotten. 1t was risky undertaking, but
she had a stout heart and implicit conf
dence in her own ability and in that of
her company. 1t is needless to say she
was received with open arms, for Amer
lea stands first of all countries in award
ing to true merit its true reward. Since
then her praises have been sounded
throughout the land by the presssuntil
her name has become a household
word. All who know her honor her for
her artistic excellence, and love her for
her sterling womanly qualities. In pri-
vate life Miss VOkes is Mrs. Cecil Clay,
and happier couple cannot be founnd.
MIR. Clay travels with his wife, and i'm
every city becomes as great social sue
cess as his wife is an artistic success.
By the way, Notwithstanding Mr.. Clay
being a thorough Englishman he is
descendent of our Henry Clay, of Ken

gagement at the Hennepin Avenue
theater she will present five comediet-
tas for the first time in Minneapolis. s'In

comedietta, with an exceedingly good
moral. In it Miss Volkes plays the part
